Talk:Shadow Invasion
Long Windedness
I understand you're really just working on this page in general, but does it really need to be just so long? I mean half the sections have "Main Articles" so why are they so big here? Those sections should only contain explicit, pertinent information regarding this subject, and nothing else. If they can't be summarized/paraphrased without basically including the article that they link to, then they should be cut entirely and just replaced with the "Main Article" link, and only sections with no other articles representing them should remain here. Plus, this article seems to be shaping up more as a giant summary of events in Twilight Princess - or is that my ignorance speaking?
I'm not against page length when it's relevant, but I am against pages that are excessively long for no reason, and just because you're building the article is no excuse to make it this way. Do it right from the beginning and save yourself the trouble later. If anything you'll expand it, and that's better than cutting down, right? --Xizor 04:07, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
- I understand Xizor, but I just gave a brief overview of the main articles so as to give an idea about how they relate to the invasion for those who just come to the page about the invasion. The greater details are covered in the longer main articles. Also, I'm not completely done with the article, I still have the aftermath to cover and to get pictures and sources into it, so it's still a work in progress. Link87 04:19, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, I sorta saw this coming, which is why I offered to make the nav bar. Just rework the top into a very few statements encouraging the reader to see the other articles in the chain of events here. Have it in one section, Preceding Events or something. This is what I was trying to get at in Skype. User:Axiomist/sig 04:37, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
- Well see about putting this page (and for that matter, any page you work on in the future =P) on Wiki Weight Watchers, because obese pages are not good. Buff pages are hot, obese pages are not! --Xizor 04:53, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
